The CD38, clone HIT2, Qdot® 800 nanocrystal conjugate is a mouse monoclonal antibody (mAb) that recognizes the human CD38 antigen and the expressed product of the CD38 gene. The Qdot® 800 nanocrystal conjugate may be used in the same way as conventional antibody conjugates and is most often used with 405 nm excitation, permitting simultaneous multicolor labeling of multiple targets off the violet laser. Alternatively, the nanocrystal can be excited by any laser up to the wavelength at which it absorbs.


Specificity for CD38
This antibody recognizes the CD38 antigen. This antigen is expressed on terminally differentiated B cells (plasma cells) as well as on thymocytes and T cells. The molecule is also expressed on monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and some epithelial cells. On T-cells the molecule is reported to have NAD glycohydrolase activity.
